An alternating voltage of $22 \mathrm{~V}$ is applied across an inductance coil of reactance $11 \Omega$. If the inductance of the coil is $0.07 \mathrm{H}$, the frequency of alternating voltage is
  1. $25 \mathrm{~Hz}$
  2. $40 \mathrm{~Hz}$
  3. $50 \mathrm{~Hz}$
  4. $20 \mathrm{~Hz}$

Solution

The inductive reactance is $\begin{aligned} & X_L=\omega L \\ & \omega=2 \pi f \\ & \therefore 2 \pi f L=X_L \\ & \Rightarrow f=\frac{X_L}{2 \pi L}=\frac{11}{2 \pi(0.07)} \mathrm{Hz}=25 \mathrm{~Hz} \end{aligned}$
